Short Statement:
The number of responses decreased from 2,404 to 1,236 and the number of burden hours decreased by 584 (from 1,202 to 618 hours) due to a decrease in the number of cost type contracts projected within the next 3 years (from 64 to 34). The projected decrease is largely due to decreased use of this contract type. Specific changes are described below: Contracts which have no TOs or license fee recovery associated with them and provide for monthly billing are expected to decrease by 27 contracts (from 45 to 18). TOs associated with the three contracts not license fee recoverable are expected to decrease by 60 (from 76 total TOs to 16 total TOs.) TOs associated with the 13 contracts with recoverable license fees are expected to decrease by 76 (from 195 total TOs to 119 total TOs.) Also, due to the decrease in the number of active cost type contracts (from 64 to 34), annual reporting costs decreased (from $286,076 to $168,714) and estimated annual cost to the Government decreased (from $479,332 to $273,178), notwithstanding an increase in the cost for professional effort from $238 to $274 per hour.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$273,178
